iOS 11.x.x Release Speculation Thread

[atlchamp]

Why are we even sure that they are going to release a GM?

 

[PR1985]

Well, my 2 cents, I think GM today and public release tomorrow. Based on absolutely nothing.

Your 2 cents are always appreciated and this is a speculation thread, so go ahead and do it!

GM today and public release next week.

 

[Mlrollin91]

I’m afraid I think your wrong. Public release tomorrow .

Again. A public release has never happened after an event.

Sure? I recall events where after the event they released a final. Some time ago, sure!

Yes I’m sure. Betas and GMs. Not public releases. It’s usually the next day or following week.

This event isn't even going to be live streamed. I think its getting way overhyped. And if it is true new iPads are coming, they would be released next Friday, meaning iOS would be released next Tuesday/Wednesday. Just like every other time new hardware is released.

Definitely not, maybe for GM. Tuesday is an event. Final public releases don't come out day of events.

Again. A public release has never happened after an event.

there was an apple event march 21, 2016 and they announced 9.3 and released it to public the same day. so final could be on tuesday..

Whoops!

Anything today??

Anything today??

Do you read written posts before you post such a question? No.

 

[Starship67]

Just to point out, tomorrow is not your typical Apple event.

Without any evidence to back myself up, I think there’s a 95% the GM is released today, lol

I think it’s possible the public release could happen too. Apple may surprise us.

Well I guess I am wrong. I would have bet anything it was the GM, because no "final" version of 9.3 was ever seeded to developers. 9.3B7 was a beta build.

 

[thatJohann]

I expect beta 7 tomorrow.

Possible, given the fact that Apple is always builds ahead internally.

I’ve noticed a few people asking why everyone is so sure that there will be a GM. This adds credence to that.

 

[Lobwedgephil]

I expect beta 7 tomorrow.

My guess is public release tomorrow, no GM this time.

Its pretty rare that X.x builds don't get a GM though. Maybe not the same as a X.0 GM, but developers usually get the final version first.

But I do concede my point and agree with you.

I agree and would think that the features they are releasing (specifically biz chat and ARkit 1.5) would warrant a final build for the developers to finalize their apps.

I feel like the GM should have dropped last week if there was going to be one and the final gets released tomorrow

If they are done with the QR Code scanner flaw.

 

[john991]

Counting down... T minus 7 minutes.

My guess iOS 11.3 not released today. (With the QR bug being discovered)

 

[JetBlack7]

Guess not?

 

[PBz]

QR bug? Maybe that is why my phone couldn’t read the code to sync with my new Fuji camera.

 

[robert1998]

Still a chance after 3 hours so today is not over

No, it's a security issue with the Camera app. https://infosec.rm-it.de/2018/03/24/ios-camera-qr-code-url-parser-bug/
